Story
Meet Misha the Magnificent, also known as Moo and Misha Moo by staff and volunteers. Misha has been at the shelter waiting for her forever family for WAY too long - almost two years! We love her playful spirit and all of the people who meet her will tell you she gives the best hugs. She loves princess castles, sniffy walks and squeaky toys. Ask any of our staff or volunteers and they will tell you she gives THE best snuggles after a walk. And naps? YES! Misha likes to keep her bed area clean with the exception of her many toys she likes to keep with her. This perfect princess would like to be the only pet in her new kingdom, which has made it a bit harder for her to make her way out of the shelter. She is truly a sweet and gentle soul who will make a WONDERFUL addition to a family that has time to snuggle with her, and her devotion to her 'people' runs deep. Misha is spayed, microchipped and up to date on her vaccines. Come meet Misha in person at the Kent County Animal Shelter.

Story
West is the Best! This handsome dude is a cool as a cucumber when it comes to exploring the world. Not one to over-excite with lots of noise and activity around him, taking walks is one of the things West enjoys the most! Not a frequent barker, he is one CHILL dude and a professional when it comes to car rides, just sitting there calmly and enjoying the scenery. He's a social charmer who likes meeting new people and wants to please his family. At 4 years old, he's well housetrained and behaves like a gentleman. West is currently living with a foster family, but he's ready to find his way to his own home, and make some serious bonds with the people who will love him forever! West is up to date on all vaccinations, heartworm negative, microchipped and neutered.

Story
Meet Marvelous Millie! Millie is another one of our long-term residents that has been waiting SO patiently for her family to find her. A staff and volunteer favorite, she does go out for field trips and overnights with glowing reports of good behavior upon her return. Millie is SMART - she knows how to sit, speak, wait and shake hands. Staff will tell you that she is motivated to learn and learns fast! Her favorite activities on field-trip days are snuggling on the couch and working on her perfect golden suntan! She is a great companion for walks and doesn't get overly excited with normal activities happening around her but does love to have some time to zoom around and play, too. She LOVES toys, LOVES to snuggle with her people, always wanting to have a paw on her person as a way of showing affection. Aside from her pile of favorite toys, Millie does keep a neat pen and doesn't tend to have 'accidents' on her field trips. She is SUCH a fun gal, its hard to believe she's been waiting this long for someone to see how truly awesome she is. Millie is up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, microchipped and spayed.

Junie

Pointer American Staffordshire Terrier

Female, 1 yr 6 mos
Grand Rapids, MI
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Spayed or Neutered,
Story
A few facts about Junie: Her favorite activity is chasing tennis balls. She WILL bring them back to you, and even hold onto it with her foot after she drops it so you can pick it up before it rolls away. After about 10 minutes of chasing tennis balls she's ready to morph into a couch potato. She settles down VERY nicely and enjoys eye contact and snuggles. Junie is quite intelligent. She already knows sit and she is motivated to learn, even more to earn herself some treats. Junie can, at times, be moderate to high energy. She would do best with a family that has a fenced in backyard for her to run, or is committed to taking her for daily walks. Junie has REALLY soft fur! All the better to snuggle with, we say! Junie has been waiting for too long to find her forever family. She is spayed, up-to-date on all of her vaccinations, microchipped, and heartworm negative. She is ready to go!

Story
Hope for Honduras Transport! Jo here wondering where on earth her family is!!! Jo came all the way to the United States (from Roatan) to get the life she deserves. She would love a quit home with a fenced in yard (although, not required) to run around in. She does love to spend most of her time chewing on bones or curled up on the couch. Jo plays hard to get and takes a little bit to warm up to new people and things but once she is comfortable she is your best friend. She loves with all her heart and wears her emotions on her sleeve. She will keep you laughing with her happy, quirky self.  She doesn't love chikdren as they frighten her. If you are interested in adopting me, please apply at michelesrescue.com! ##1899109##
